The South, Marlborough, June 6

The South, Marlborough, June 6

After a marathon 64 gigs in 2014 that saw the band play at all points of the compass in the UK, 2015 sees them taking things a little easier.

This year The South have put only a handful of choice gigs in their diary: and one of them sees them play Marlborough on June 6.

The gig is raising money for Charlie's Charity, a local group which raises money to help young people in Wiltshire in memory of Charlie Lamb, who died in 2009 aged 18.

The combination of Beautiful South hits and album tracks as well as original songs from their debut album, Sweet Refrains, has hit a pleasure nerve around the country.

Once in a while a band appears that strikes a chord with many. Their music becomes an integral part of a nation's psyche and the soundtrack to many people's lives. Ingrained in the hearts of many is one such band, the Beautiful South. Over three decades this band became a household name, selling over 15 million albums.

On disbanding in 2007, original members Dave Hemingway and Alison Wheeler went on to form The South and with mainstays Damon Butcher, Tony Robertson and Gaz Birtles (keyboards and brass since the very beginning of The Beautiful South): this talented nine-piece continue to celebrate the music of the Beautiful South and take on the challenge of creating new material for the band.

Their rich tapestry of music is wooing audiences far and wide, as they continue to receive ovations from all corners of the UK. People keep coming back again and again on the very same tour, so these guys are obviously doing something right!

Want a brilliant night out? Want a moment of euphoria as old memories flood back and new ones are formed?

With both old and new tunes that stand the test of time, experience this amazing live band performing great songs from Sweet Refrains and classics that can never be forgotten: including Perfect 10, A Little Time, Rotterdam, Don't Marry Her, You Keep It All In, to name but a few.

You'll be surprised at how many songs you already know!

Isn't it time you headed South?

Tickets for The South at the Theatre On The Hill on Saturday, June 6 are £20, available from 0333 666 3366 and from TicketSource.co.uk/buytickets
